Bringing Writing to Life: Exploring the Science of Writing Instruction Institute

Please join us for an in-person professional learning experience where we will unpack the research and find out how teaching writing as a separate content area provides a critical pathway for fostering effective communication skills as well as nurturing creativity and critical thinking, which are essential skills for both academic and personal success.

During this institute participants will: 

• Learn to create classrooms where students thrive within a robust community of writers.
• Explore how to engage students in daily, purposeful writing for genuine audiences.
• Sharpen their technical skills and develop writing fluency and confidence. 
• Experience, view, and analyze lessons. 
• See the value of connecting reading with writing.
• Network with other literacy leaders from the region.

You’ll leave well-equipped with professional resources, lesson examples, and checklists that can help you teach writing processes, strategies, grammar, and feedback techniques that match your students’ needs and bring writing to life.
